Self-taught Northamptonshire artist Jane, produces beautiful pen and ink drawings featuring trees with a fantasy element and setting, each one is full of character, intricate detail, humour and whimsey.

 

"I enjoy sketching and drawing trees – it’s as simple as that. Ideas can just pop into my head or begin life whilst out ‘tree gazing’. All my trees have a fantasy element to them, some more extreme than others, but always inspired by trees in their natural settings. I enjoy humanising trees as it gives me plenty of scope to come up with whimsical and extraordinary ideas."

 

The prints are taken from her original drawings, which are produced using black ink pens on a watercolour wash background. Some of the prints are further embellished using glitter to highlight the main subject in the image.

 

"You could never make a tree more interesting or beautiful than nature intended, I just enjoy adding a mix of my imagination and a lot of inky quirkiness."
